Exchange Student Fee Information

Tuition & Fees

Exchange students are not required to pay for tuition and fees for up to 15 credits of regular course enrollment. **Australian students can take up to 12 credits of regular course enrollment.

Room and Board

Most exchange students are required to pay for their own room (accommodation) and board (meals). However, in some cases, our university has an agreement which does not require students to pay for room and board. Students who are not required to pay for room and board should select from one of the following housing options:

1. Traditional double room in the Residence Halls and Weekly 12 Meal Plan

2. Two or three bedroom apartment in the Hybrid Apartments with the Jardine 150 Meal Plan

Residence Hall Application Fee

Students who do not have room and board included in their exchange must pay the application fee.

Students who have room and board included in their exchange do not have to pay the application fee.

Health Insurance

All exchange students will automatically be billed for the mandatory U.S. health insurance on their K-State Student Billing Account through the student information system (KSIS). Students can request a waiver if their health insurance meets our minimum requirements.
